Add Buttons to load other forms

I have an Adobe form created; however, on that form, I want to add buttons to that form. Once I click on a specific button, I want that to pull in another Adobe form that I created. Can Adobe LiveCycle do that?

No, is not possible.
You have to incorporate all sections that you need in only one form.
After that you can use a button to hide or show the correct sections.
To save time you can use the fragments.

Add button to SharePoint 2013 form with InfoPath and/or SharePoint designer

Since I am new to working with Sharepoint 2013, I have the following questions to ask you about Infopath 2013 and possibly SharePoint Desinger 2013:
1. Yesterday I created a custom list in my 'test area of SharePoint' and opened the list in Infopath 2013 to see what the form would look like. Now I have alot more columns and edits to add to the list. I am planning to add more columns to the list when
I am in my 'test area' and then make cosmetic changes to the form using Infopath 2013. I am thinking that if I continue this way, I may lose some ediut changes I have made using Infopath 2013. Thus can you tell me the best way to add more columns to the list
and/or modify the existing columns and not lose the edit changes that I made using Infopath 2013?
2. The infopath 2013 form does not contain any buttons to click. I need a button to show up for every user to click so that a workflow can be started. Do I need some kind of a task list(action)? Thus can you tell me how to add this type of a button to the
form?

Wendy, Please go through this video from
channel 9 (http://channel9.msdn.com/Blogs/NickDallett/InfoPath-2010-Customize-a-SharePoint-List-Form) which will uilding froom explain similar form building from scratch.
As per Peter's replay yes you can update form even after add columns in list and you can add extar control like button to your infopath form.
Workflows are usually started when creating or updating an item inside a SharePoint document library.
Open the workflow in SharePoint Designer and under "Start Options' on the workflow's home page, remove the check from "Start workflow manually...". Be sure the check either "Start on create..." or "Start on change...". In
your case I think you would use "Start on create...".
Hope these inputs will help
Please 'propose as answer' if it helped you, also 'vote helpful' if you like this reply.

How to automatically click add button on Process child form?

During automatic provisioning of SAP CUA resource defined using access policy, how do I automatically click the "add" button to add the pre-populated role and system?
Auto-save is already checked in the process definition of provisioning process.
Thanks!

Thanks for the detailed steps. None of the information I specify in the child form is getting saved and I am getting the following errors. Bits from the log:

but in my case " Utilities->Insert WebDynpro Script" in layout is coming as inactive so can not able to
add that.
Can any one guide me how can i use Buttons on my Adobe ABAP interactive form?

Add button - redirect to other Entity with predefined value

Hi,
I have entities User and Student. In User I have attribute Role. For both entities I have created screens. And when I click on button Add on screen BrowseStudent, I want to be redirected to AddEditUser with predefined value (Student) of attribute User.Role
in form AddEditUser and disable modifying this value by user. Is it possible in Lightswitch? Redirect to other method was simple but predefined value is problem for me. Thank you for help.

Hi,
I have seen attempts to use javascript to add entire new rows, and I've even tried this myself, but I'm not sure we've nailed it yet! Have a look at Denes' example: [http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:207]
If this method is not possible/practical, then you would need to be able to pass at least the ID of the row to a process that can set, perhaps, application items that can be used as defaults. The process would need to retrieve the data from either the underlying tables or the tabular form's data collection (using APEX_APPLICATION.G_Fnn functionality). Otherwise, the user's selection would be lost during the submit/reload process.

Adobe reader closes automatically while table entry is added by add button

Hi Team,
I am new in adobe form. I have developed an adobe interactive form using livecycle designer integrated with SAP. My form has a table and under that there is an add button. When the form is opened in adobe reader and add button is clicked, I have written a javascript code which appends a new entry in the table above. Everything is fine upto here.
Now when I keep on clicking the add button, new entries are created and table grows. But when the table populates the current page and grows to populate the next page, suddenly the adobe form closes. I think there is an inconsistancy happening as my configuration for the table or the subform wrapping the table and the add button is conflicting.
Could you guys give me some advise on this. I can provide screenshots or the adobe document on request.
Thanks,
Mainak

Hi,
I would say you are definitely coming up against memory restrictions. There are a couple of posts by John Brinkman that I would recommend.
First I would look at why the form is 6Mb and see if you can reduce this down. For example, select fonts that are already in Reader (like Myriad Pro) and then deselect Embed Fonts in the File > Form Properties > Save Options. Also do not embed images into the form. See:
http://blogs.adobe.com/formfeed/2010/02/big_and_complex_forms.html.
http://blogs.adobe.com/formfeed/2010/09/xdp-size-matters.html.
http://blogs.adobe.com/formfeed/2009/11/linked_vs_embedded_template_im.html.
Next look at your script. You mention loops, so check is your script efficient. For example, use xfa.resolveNodes() once outside of the loop, instead of xfa.resolveNode() inside the loop. Make sure that variables are declared. See:
http://blogs.adobe.com/formfeed/2011/10/script-performance-exercise.html.
http://assure.ly/kUP02y.
Also check for any script that you have in events that fire frequently, like layout:ready event and comment these out. See.
http://assure.ly/nB0Bvz.
The dataset seems very large at 2Mb. Does this include image data? It may be that the user is interacting with the form, while it is still trying to process the XML and the loops.
Hope that helps,
Niall

Add Button

Hello,
I have created a subform that I would like to be hidden and when the add button is clicked the form will appear, then the user can click the add button as many times for the subform to appear as many times as necessary.
currently the add button works if i have the subform visible. however, as soon as i changed the subform to 'hidden' the add button does not work.
i tried adding code in the click event to make the subform visible when the button is clicked, however this is not working.
does anyone know another way around this?
thanks in advance,
Nik

Thanks Niall,
I have tried to remove the minimum however i cannot find anything that says addInstance.
I am using the generic Add button from the object library. this is the code that is under the click event:
/* This button will Add one instance of the repeating subform or table row.
sSubformSOM: SOM expression of the repeating subform or table row.
bCalc: Flag - true if the new instance might be referenced by other calculations, otherwise false.
message: The error message displayed.
These variables must be assigned for this script to run correctly.
Replace <value> with the correct value.
var sSubformSOM = " form1.subfrmChildren1";     // Example: var sSubformSOM = "xfa.form.form1.Subform1";
var bCalc = true;              // Example: var bCalc = false;
var message = "You have reached the maximum number of items allowed.";
// DO NOT MODIFY THE CODE BEYOND THIS POINT - 8.2.1.3158.1.475346.466429 - Subform_Instance_Controls_Add.xfo
// Build the SOM expression of the Instance Manager using the 'underscore' syntax.
var oSubform = xfa.resolveNode(sSubformSOM);         // Evaluate the SOM expression.
var sParentSOM = oSubform.parent.somExpression;      // Get the parent SOM expression.
var sManagerSOM = sParentSOM + "._" + oSubform.name; // Build the SOM expression of the Instance Manager.
var oManager = xfa.resolveNode(sManagerSOM);         // Evaluate the SOM expression.
var nMaxCount = oManager.occur.max;     // Get the maximum number of subform occurrences allowed.
var nSubCount = oManager.count;         // Get the current number of instances.
// Proceed if the maximum number of subform occurrences has not been reached.
if ((nMaxCount == "-1") || (nSubCount < nMaxCount)) {
    // Invoke the Instance Manager.
    var oNewInstance = oManager.addInstance(1);
    // Fire the form calculations.
    if (bCalc == true) {
        // Execute all the form calculations.
        xfa.form.recalculate(1);
} else {
    xfa.host.messageBox(message,"Add Item", 3);

Event of add button

Which event is fired when we click on add ?

Dilip,
Are you tanking about the Add button (button with uid=1, situated in the bottom left corner of the form), or the Add button the changes the form to Add Mode?
If you are talking about the first, you must catch either the FORM_DATA_ADD event of the FormData type, or the CLICK event of the ItemEvent type.
If you are talking about the second, you must catch the MenuEvent, when pVal.BeforeAction = False and pVal.MenuUID = 1282.
    Public Function MenuHandler(ByRef oCompany As SAPbobsCOM.Company, ByRef oApplication As SAPbouiCOM.Application, _
                ByRef pVal As SAPbouiCOM.MenuEvent) As Boolean
        MenuHandler = True
        oForm = oApplication.Forms.ActiveForm
        oForm.Freeze(True)
        Try
            If pVal.BeforeAction = True Then
            Else '// If pVal.BeforeAction = False
                Select Case pVal.MenuUID
                    Case "1282" '// Add Mode Button
                        If oForm.Mode = BoFormMode.fm_ADD_MODE Then
                            '// YOUR CODE HERE
                        End If
                End Select

How do I add a button to an existing form

I have seen a few questions similar to this, but I am a total novice to customizing SBO. This is the procedure as I understand it, please tell me if I am correct.
I have to have some application running (call it MyApp). MyApp contains the code to catch the load event for the form I am intersted in, and add the button then let the form load. Is that correct? Then what do I need to do to capture the event caused by pressing the new button? Ultimately, this exercise will add a button to the Activity form and then cause the screen to refresh when the button is pressed.
I am NOT asking for someone to do this for me, but I see "pieces" of what I think I want to do in the examples and help, I just want to be sure I am heading in the right direction before getting mired down.
TIA

Hi Steve,
For adding your button to a system form, your approach is correct (ie capture the load event of the form your want to customise and add the button using the UI API or by loading via XML). There is an example of customising a system form in the UI API samples from the SDK. There is also an article on how to use XML to load new controls that can be found here:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/ebe72e9e-0301-0010-979e-d37dcd714600
For capturing the event of the user clicking on your new button, what you need to do is trap the Item Pressed event for that form. I also recommend you look at filtering the events that your addon captures. This is good practice as a lack of event filtering can cause significant performance issues.
Kind Regards,
Owen

How do I add a submit button to a pdf form?

hello
I am trying to add a submit button to a pdf form... is this possible though forms central or Acrobat Pro?

If it is a PDF you created with FormsCentral, then yes, it should have a Submit button. See this for more info: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat-com/formscentral/help/create-fillable-pdf-form.html and http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat-com/formscentral/help/create-forms-locally-save-them.html
If it's a fillable form created with Acrobat Pro, and you want to collect data with FormsCentral, then you import that existing PDF file into FormsCentral and add a Submit button to the form: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat-com/formscentral/help/navigate-formscentral.html#import_exi sting_fillable_pdf_forms
I hope that helps,

Can you create a button that adds specific text to a form field?

Hi,
I was wondering if it was possible to create a button in a PDF that, when clicked, adds specific text to a form field?
I am trying to make a product catalogue where you click on a product button to add the product name or code to a form field.
Each product in the catalogue will have a button and the more you click the more is added to the form field(s).
Then when you have finished adding products to the form field(s) I want to be able to save and email the entire PDF as an order form.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Jim

Yes, it's possible. The most simple version of such a script will be something like this (used as the button's MouseUp event):
var v = this.getField("Products");
if (f.value!="")
f.value += ", ";
f.value += "Product1";

Add button to PDF Form to save file to specific location

I have a simple form that is completed daily by various supervisors. I have successfully added a button to the form to email the form which then sends the form to an email group. Now, I'm trying to add a second button to save the form to a network location. I'm looking for this to be a one-click type situation, where the button then saves the form to the specified folder on the network.
Lets call our form "Form.pdf". I'd like the filename to be "Form - date - time.pdf" where date and time are fields on the form that are completed by the user. The location will always remain the same and will be a UNC path ie \\server\share\filename
All users are using Acrobat X standard when completing the forms, will be connected to the network and will have permissions to write to the file share.
This seems like it sohould be easy, but I cant figure out how to do it in Acrobat.
Thanks in advance for any help.

It's only possible if you can install a script on the local machine of each
user. For more info, see this tutorial:

How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central.

How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central. It's for an online Diet Questionnaire. After people complete the form I'd like them to click "SUBMIT" and the completed form will be emailed to me.

This can be a bit confusing because Acrobat 11 comes with the desktop app that allows you to create simple PDF forms without having a FormsCentral account. Some people find this helpful, but you need to understand that when you generate the PDF form, it is Reader-enabled by Acrobat. In order to edit the form further in Acrobat, you have to create a non-enabled copy of the form. You do this in Acrobat by opening the form and selecting: File > Save a Copy
and opening the copy. It is not opened automatically.
You can now add a button and set it up to submit by email, either using a "Submit a form" action or the submitForm JavaScript method. You can set it up to include just the form data or the entire PDF, and will want to use a mailto type URL. Submitting the form to the FormsCentral server has a number of important advantages over email (much more reliable, more secure, etc.), so you might want to consider it.
If the form needs to be saved with Reader versions prior to 11, then you will need to Reader-enable the document. In Acrobat 11 you do this by selecting: File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools
